Rengarajan SandGreg Kroah-Hartman 7382b6f7d1 net: microchip: lan743x: Reduce PTP timeout on HW failure
[ Upstream commit b1de3c0df7 ]

The PTP_CMD_CTL is a self clearing register which controls the PTP clock
values. In the current implementation driver waits for a duration of 20
sec in case of HW failure to clear the PTP_CMD_CTL register bit. This
timeout of 20 sec is very long to recognize a HW failure, as it is
typically cleared in one clock(<16ns). Hence reducing the timeout to 1 sec
would be sufficient to conclude if there is any HW failure observed. The
usleep_range will sleep somewhere between 1 msec to 20 msec for each
iteration. By setting the PTP_CMD_CTL_TIMEOUT_CNT to 50 the max timeout
is extended to 1 sec.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
